Ah, ok. Just making sure you weren't leaving the airport to go get something.

Depends on how far you want to go. Keep in mind that it takes 10 minutes to get completely out of the airport, but all within that area (off the top of my head) there is a Pappa's BBQ, Pappa's Seafood, Chuy's, Saltgrass, Asian City Hibachi. This is near Deerbrook Mall or on the opposite side of 59. There is a hole in the wall Chinese place more towards 45 (Lee Road) that I can't remember the name of, but it's surprisingly awesome.

Really good Italian joint called "Italiano's" of all things. It's right off 1960 on the East side of 59.

Chuy's might be some of the most mediocre Tex Mex out there. The jalapeno dip is good if you want to be a fatty, but the food there is just meh.

Do yourself a favor and head into town, then. The area around the airport is no man's land. You can probably find some options in The Woodlands if you want. Other than that, you shouldn't get robbed in Humble/Kingwood if you are okay with the chain restaurants mentioned.

One of the best Mexican places I have had in that area was in Kingwood at a place called Chachi's.

This x 1000

15-20 minute ride to some great restaurants. Don't waste your money in the burbs.

You serious? Those garlic knots were amazing and the pizza was really good. Granted I have not been there in over a year.

The bread is very good. Never had the pizza. Just chain Italian though. Better than Christopher's. That place sucks

Best Mexican IMO is Luoe Tortilla. Get the carne asada. Has a freaking awesome lime marinade and the tortillas are the best in town.

Not being a dick, but the guy probably doesn't know that was a typo.

Like I said it's been a while since I've been so maybe I'm remembering it better than it was. The enchiladas at Chachi's are almost worth driving out to Kingwood for. It's a real hidden gem of the area.
